Watercolor & Ink
A very small (under 3"x4") portrait of the one who weights souls.
Anubis is a figure I have waffled about rendering honestly. I see so much work featuring this figure (blame furries). And many make them out to be... scary or domineering.
Which I have not found to be accurate in reading translations of texts. Inpu (the Coptic name vs Greek one) reads as a kinder figure, a realist, and someone who just... weights the scales of your judgement. They handle the bodies of the dead. This is not something done lightly and in all cultures, something that is done with a somberness and respect.
I am glad I decided to render them all the same. It super nice to finish up this small piece.
I will be sending it off to the BLFC art show if a Patreon does not want to claim it first.
I am planning to do a larger portrait of this god to match the Sekment I did back in 2020.
